[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The low class ignorance being showcased here is off the charts. Wow. Proving once again why so many book smart people don't get into top schools - the admissions people can pick you out a mile away. Think you know everything about everything but don't actually have any clue how the game is played. And you sit there making up fake narratives about the people a generation or two ahead of you who you don't understand, rather than shutting your mouths, opening your minds and learning.

We deserve the awful mayor we are going to get. Because all of the idiots believed his promises and have no idea how government works.[/quote].

The direct attacks on Russians and Chinese Americans here are disgusting.  [/quote]

The only way they are being attacked is some people are indirectly commenting on their unwillingness to assimilate. You can't have it both ways. There are many people (including many from those groups) who have succeeded at assimilating to mainstream America (and no, I'm not referring to gangsta rap and watching sports all day) and also holding onto their heritage. But if you want to refuse to do that and act like your way is the best and the established way is wrong, good luck to you. It will be a lot harder to become an MD at a major bank, partner at a top PE firm, partner at a big law firm, etc. And I'm sure you can cite example of those who did this. But they are very few and far between. Just stop complaining. And no, this isn't racist. It is reality. I'm trying to be helpful. And celebrating those who have succeeded at proudly maintaining their wonderful heritages while also blending into the country where they now live.[/quote]
